I doubt that its dying. There is only one bad sector. The drive is in constant use. Its ran at 100% for almost 12 hours while copying the files and no errors were detected. Its always the same sector with the error.

How do you figure out which file has the problem? expireover's logs are all buffered so you don't get the last partial buffer. I don't know yet if I can mark that particular sector as bad, but if I can find the file I can at least move to someplace where it won't get deleted. I chased through the core dump and the only directory indicated but all of those files are good. I have also tar'd the entire news directory elsewhere and no errors were encountered. The sector is the same every day.
